MY peonies

did i not say mine would be amazingly gorgeous? was i not completely right? these are just the buds that we chopped off the stems while making the table arrangements, but they bloomed! i know there is a pitcher full of ones that were just like this when i left my parents house, i bet they're gorgeous now.

i love flowers!

peonies

i've got to say, peonies saved my day. peonies saved my entire week and i am BEYOND in love with them. every single florist i talked to laughed in my face when i said i wanted them as the flowers for my wedding, "you'll blow your budget" with a chuckle followed by complete unwillingness to talk about it for another second or the far more common "we can't get those, you missed your window by a week."

well guess who's having locally grown, huge, gorgeous light pink peonies in classy little ball jars for her wedding in a week? me! all thanks to jephry floral studio. on top of actually having what i wanted, more gorgeous than i was expecting and them being locally grown (no shipping from around the world and wasting fuel), he was actually nice. did you read that right? yes. he was NICE. the only nice florist i've ever run into, which is another reason my original plan was picking my own wildflowers... you can only get sassed so many times by so many florists.

so yeah, in a week i'll post my very own version of my dream wedding flowers and they will be even more beautiful than these lovely white ones. SO EXCITING!

feed the senses

ok, so i have been really busy and not putting a whole lot of time into scouring the internet for rad things to post here but MAN, is this the most insane commercial ever. apparently Friskies is cat acid and i want some.

watch me and prepare to be amazed!

crunch time

now this is what i like to call "serious business", please note how easy it is for me to get off track. who would not want a crocheted coffee cup cozy? seriously, no one.

pretty ties are nice and all but give me a cupcake any day.
